Are there different size rods and that all the same model/length?
They were all 7'2" medium heavy (or medium fast, whichever they call it). Picked one up this morning. They had about 20 left on the rack. Hard to beat that deal.

I am pretty sure I saw 7'2" and 7'6".

My mistake. They did have a ...

I just pulled the artificial reef map and state waters boundary from FWC's server. Here's the breakdown of some local reefs. Hopefully this helps. Let me know if you need the numbers for these.

St. Marks Reef

Ran out of the Lighthouse yesterday looking to get hooked up with some rock bass at a few holes we have in 10-12 feet of water south of the flats. The bass were there in great numbers a couple weeks ago, but they were long gone yesterday. Fishing the falling tide, we caught one or two short bass ...

If you get lucky, there will be a few birds following the reds, but they do move fast. Like a pack of tazmanian devils...

I ran over to Port St. Joe last weekend with a couple friends from out of town and managed to have a pretty good day of scallop fishing.

We put in at the state park and headed south until we ran out of water. Then we jumped out into a jungle of deep seagrass and started feeling our way along the ...

Read the installation instructions to transfer the waypoints to a smartphone or your boat's GPS. Then head out and start exploring.

By the way, for Android devices, I've found three applications that function pretty damn well as chartplotter replacements.

Oruxmaps -- Free -- Most features by far, but sketchy compatibility with some devices. Lots of background charts. Can make custom maps.

Backcountry Navigator -- $11.99 ...

Oh man, you are speaking my language.

I've been looking for a tough, cheap tablet for a while to run my chartplotting software. Here's a question for you. How well does the screen on that tablet do in direct sunlight? Or just in general, how much dimmer is it than an actual Humminbird or Lowrance ...

I'm all for buying local but for these types of wood and specific sizes you will probably need to look elsewhere. Try Stein Products in Chattanooga Tn. Ask for Leo Kogan. I visited their office and warehouse they have lots of wood from all over the world. They will ship to you. I'm in LaGrange , Ga ...

I need to pick up some 4/4 hardwood for a small furniture project. Nothing fancy or exotic. About 10 board feet of Walnut or Mahogany would do it for me. Ten inches wide would be ideal.

Anyone know of any local-ish hardwood suppliers to the Big Bend? Preferably somewhere between Apalachicola and ...

Grunts and gag grouper do hang out in the same places. When you get tired of taking grunts off the hook, drop a big pinfish hooked through the meat above the tail on a couple or three feet of leader. Crank the sinker a couple turns off the bottom and wait. Grunts usually won't mess with live pinners ...

Should've went with the Conflict! I have a 2500 that is an ABSOLUTE BEAST!!! everything from 20"+ Trout, overslot reds, and even some 20lb AJs!!! Their new drag system is beastly... just ask Milto :lol: :lol: :lol:

Nice reel, but I wish they'd put a proper handle on that thing. The one that's on ...

Those are also available here on the Big Bend site:

It has the area public numbers along with a lot of the rock garden rocks... not all of them but a lot ;-)

Do you want me to convert those to GPX format for you? Might save a lot of folks ...
